Hello
I asked sometime ago about the possibilities to add some Thread
functionality to the discussion pages and I was pointed out that there
exists
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:LiquidThreads.
However it seems to me not a very vivid project. Are there any other
plans to add such a functionality?
Thanks

Between other things I've been working on a distributed bzip2 compression tool
which could help speed up generation of data dumps.
By trading LAN bandwidth for idle CPU elsewhere in the server cluster, an
order-of-magnitude improvement in throughput seems reasonably practical; this
could cut bzip2 compression time for the large English Wikipedia history dumps
by a full day.

Updates on my (*blush*) development blog:

I'm hoping something similar can be accomplished with 7zip as well...

Is there any plan in the future to move more of the functionality from
the EditPage class to Article? It seems like a lot of the
functionality that's currently in EditPage (at least in the 1.4
version) such as checking if the page is protected, checking the time
stamp of the article, etc should be moved into the Article class so
that other new classes that modify articles don't have to duplicate
code or meddle with the EditPage class to save an article.
Thanks,

Hi!
I understand that Wikimedia servers run almost directly from CVS HEAD
(erm, I mean SVN trunk). If that is so, what does the revision number
at Special:Version mean (as it is quite behind SVN trunk)? And, if I
am wrong and the number is correct, how come Brion's fix to bug #6126
(thanks, Brion!) committed as r14493 seems to work on Commons, where
the special page reports 1.7alpha (r14374) ?
Thanks for any explanation,

Hello,
I am admin in Lombard wikipedia: we would like to hide the titles of some pages, for matters related to dialect fragmentation of Lombard tongue.
An exemple of this feature can be found at:
http://ca.wikipedia.org.
Unfortunately, I have got no idea about how we could proceed.
Do you have any suggestions, please?
Many thanks.
Sincerely yours,
Claudi
